We've seen the future of guitars, and it's an app store. At least
that's what Gibson would have us believe, as it announces that it's
opening the Pure-Analog Engine and the whole Firebird X platform to
third party devs. Didn't know it was a platform, did you? Thought that
it was an over-priced guitar with features that we didn't need (and a
headstock we didn't particularly care for)? Same here. Apparently the
company will soon be unleashing all sorts of Pure-Analog guitars upon
the world, at all different price points. We don't know what this
means for rock'n'roll, although we are fairly certain that the guy
from Muse already owns three of these. Hit the source link for all the
awesome deets.
